Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Oh, that's even extra annoying!

Colossus is wearing the Juggernaut helmet now? How did that happen? I associate Juggernaut with being an idiot and a brute. That's not related to the hat, is it? What's his personality like now?

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

The X-Men convinced Cyttorak to strip Juggernaut of his power after he was taken over by one of the moldy proto-Asgardian gods from Fear Itself and give it to Peter instead.

That's a really really bad logo. Like internet mocking worthy bad. It's so blah. I'm hoping there's going to be some flash to it that we're not seeing now.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

That is horribly ugly. Even color won't help it.

t edit I feel like they're just biding time until they can RE-reboot, go back to the original logo, and call it "Classic DC."

They did already have a go at "DC Zero (Hour)"

I read some Chuck Austen, because I was a X Men whore at the time, but I didn't know his whole story. The Angel/Husk aerial exhibition I do remember me creeping me out, and then later I learnt about the Mary Sue issue with Havok.

Last chance at the comics collection before it goes to Half-Price Books. Email profile addy for spreadsheet.

On Topic: Wasn't Angel human for a while in the post-S5 comic? How does that line up with his appearance in Buffy S8?

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Random Matilda quote that belongs here as much as anywhere, while viewing our newly-acquired JLU DVDS:

I wish Wonder Woman was real, so I could give her hugs.

Also, watching a climactic scene in the series finale:

Oh, the more you don't punch, the more you fail, Superman!
